October 2011

Remember the engagement photos I shot for Tina and Ricky, together with his Motorcycle ? We became good friends after we meet for client consultation and even better friends when we know that Ricky and I are both bikers. This gorgeous couple tied the know on 10/8 in the Livermore Martinelli Event Center.

Ricky loves motorcycle and he asked me if he can bring his Yamaha R1 together when they do the engagement photos. I said … Of course ! For those you don’t know me enough, I’m a big fan of motorcycle and I have owned and rode dirt bikes, trial bikes, race bikes, street bikes since year 2000. My favorite is ….. dirt bike :)

Christine & Parker married earlier in the year with a simple civil ceremony at San Francisco City Hall. When they reflected upon their wedding, they realized the one thing that was missing, photos that portrayed their love and would be cherished for a lifetime. So they approached me to shoot a wedding portrait session for them.

We brainstormed together and chose four iconic locations for the shoot, San Francisco City Hall, Palace of Fine Arts, Grace Cathedral and Golden Gate Bridge. Because both Christine and Parker’s families reside in Asia, these photos would give them a glimpse of the wonderful surroundings San Francisco has to offer.

This city is just beautiful and ideal for wedding portraits that no wonder many clients would travel here for destination weddings or even just for wedding portrait session. I feel truly blessed to help my clients retain a keepsake of their love and the beauties of this city through my camera lenses.

Again, thank you so much for my awesome makeup and hair stylist partner Joey of Jbeautique.com for making Christine so cute and beautiful
